What is Telehealth?

The Movement Clinic Sydney is pleased to now be able to offer Physiotherapy and Exercise Physiology Telehealth consultations. Telehealth is the delivery of online video consultations via electronic communication, and it allows people to speak and consult with our Physios and EP, from the comfort of their own home.

Telehealth is a highly effective alternative for our normal face to face sessions, as we can assess, diagnose and provide you with professional advice and exercises. We are able to contact you via video chat on your mobile phone or your computer. Our Telehealth consultations will deliver the same exceptional level of care as our in-clinic service, where our experienced team will develop a tailored treatment plan designed just for you.

Telehealth is suitable for:

• Vulnerable patient groups, who want to be Covid-safe.
• People who are in home isolation or physically unable to attend their normal treatment session.
• People who are in remote areas or travelling.
• Those patients with longstanding chronic injuries from all over the world, that would like to discuss their case and have a second opinion.

Australian Health Rebates still apply.

Benefits
